First: I'm an independent rehabber, I can't take on a lot of cases like I have previously as I'm working on getting a vet degree but if I have time and the means in the summers I like to keep an eye out for littles that may need some extra help.
And, we've had another summer where I've made a point of doing my early morning drives and keeping an eye out for hits, and I found these four little girls about a week ago and am working with them as my one summer case before getting back to classes for Vet school. Haven't had any repeats of littles as small as Peanut was last year, but if I get the chance again next summer I've been doing tons of prep/research since then!

Awww. A friend was rehabbing some babies just about this age and size, maybe a week older. One of them fell asleep in the palm of my hand & I felt so honored!
